Structural Waterproofing & Damp-Proofing in Camden
We keep Camden basements, cellars and walls dry. Our work covers tanking, cavity drainage and damp treatment, backed by over 30 years' experience with the borough's period housing and basement flats.
Waterproofing Camden's period property
Camden has many Victorian terraces, converted houses and lower-ground flats. As a result, demand for waterproofing and cellar conversion stays steady. Below-ground flats and old cellars often suffer damp and water ingress, especially where earlier work was poor.
We fit BS 8102 systems to suit each building. For example, we use tanking, Type C cavity drainage or damp treatment to keep a basement dry and usable. From a lower-ground flat to a full conversion, we pick the right approach.
Every job starts with a free survey. However, we never guess at the cause. We tell you honestly what is behind the water or damp problem.

Here is the full range of services we offer in Camden. Since every building differs, we advise which one suits yours.
Waterproofing & damp specialists for Camden
Camden's housing is mostly Victorian and Georgian terraces. You find them around Camden Town, Kentish Town and Primrose Hill, and many have original cellars and lower-ground flats. These solid-wall basements sit on London clay and the original builders never planned them as dry rooms, so rising damp, penetrating damp and water ingress are common. Problems grow worse where earlier tanking has failed.
We often waterproof lower-ground flats, convert damp cellars and treat rising damp in Camden. We also work in nearby Kentish Town, Gospel Oak, Belsize Park and Holloway. Whether you have one damp wall or a full basement conversion in mind, we choose a BS 8102 system to match the building.
Many flats here have had patch repairs over the years. However, a cosmetic fix rarely stops the water. Because we find the source first, the repair tackles the real cause. For more background, read our guide to basement tanking costs and how tanking compares with a cavity drain membrane.
